Vegan Lemon Cupcakes with Lemon Curd

We love the zing of lemons in our house and adding Vegan Lemon Curd to these Vegan Lemon Cupcakes if the perfect combination. Now these cupcakes don’t keep as well as say, Chocolate ones, anything with fruit goes off more quickly.  Also, if not eaten straight away the curd does tend to leak into the rest of the cupcake (by the next day). So, if they all aren’t going to be eaten up pretty quickly then pop the curd in the fridge and inject as you go! Or just spread the curd on top if you like. 

One of our favourites!

Vegan Lemon Cupcakes with Lemon Curd Allergy Mums
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cup self-raising flour
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp lemon extract
  • 1 tsp cider vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Finely chopped zest of 2 lemons
  • Juice from 2 lemons (or about 8 tsp)
  • About 1 cup non-dairy milk (put the juice in the measuring cup and top up with milk to get 1 cup of liquid)
  • 1/3 cup melted non-dairy margarine (Pure Sunflower)
  • Lemon Curd
  • 200 ml Lemon Juice – Fresh is best but us bottled if you have it.
  • Zest of 2 Lemons
  • 120 ml water
  • 3/4 cup caster sugar
  • 1/4 cup corn flour plus 1 tablespoon
  • 1/4 cup non-dairy cream
  • 3 tbsp non-dairy margarine
Directions
Step 1
First preheat oven to 170°C/350°F, line a muffin tin so everything is ready to go once the batter is done.
Step 2
Zest the lemons and put to one side. Then grab your juicer and juice the lemons. Don’t forget to remove the pips
Step 3
Add the lemon juice to the measuring jug and add enough non-dairy milk to make 1 cup. Leave to one side for 10 minutes to curdle
Step 4
Put the flour, sugar, baking soda, zest and salt into a bowl and give it a good mix to evenly combine all the ingredients
Step 5
Now add the vanilla, lemon extract, melted margarine and milk mixture. Mix to combine. Don’t over mix it – just enough to make a nice batter
Step 6
Finally fill the cupcake liner 2/3 rds of the way up and pop into the hot oven. The cupcakes should take about 15 minutes to bake, but do test with a toothpick to make sure (it should come out clean).
Step 7
Now make the Curd
Step 8
Whisk the lemon juice, water and sugar together. Place in a large pot on a medium heat to melt the sugar
Step 9
Put the cornflour in a large bowl and 1/3 cup at a time whisk the liquid into the corn flour – once you’ve put in about 2/3rds of a cup of the liquid, and you’ve whisked to a lump free constancy, then you can add the cornflour mixture back into the pot. Whisk for a few minutes then turn the heat up a bit
Step 10
The mixture will bubble, change to a darker colour. Whisk to make sure no lumps form and let it bubble for about 5 minutes. Take off the heat – add in lemon zest, non-dairy cream and non-dairy margarine and whisk again. You should have a nice consistency for injecting into the lemon cupcakes. Once the curd cools it becomes more set so best to inject it while slightly warm. If you leave it to get cold, just add in a tablespoon of water and re whisk when you are ready to add it to the cupcakes.
Step 11
I got my flavour injector from Waitrose, but I’ve seen them everywhere including Robert Dyas. Fill the injector with the curd and puncture the cupcake in the middle. Fill with about ¼ ounce of curd. I find any more and the cupcakes crack at the top. This gives you a nice dollop of curd in the middle of the cupcake. Of course you also have a puncture hole to deal with! So dust with icing sugar or cover with buttercream – whichever you prefer. If you don’t have a flavour injector just cut out a cone of cupcake from the top, pop in a dollop of curd, and put the top back on. It looks lovely! See these ones

Easy Bean Salad

Easy Bean Salad

We love Bean Salad, its just a nice change from a green salad. Packed with protein and simple to do – a lot of opening of tins involved! A simple salad that’s great with a BBQ   If you’ve got a BBQ going and want something nice on it – do try these Duck Skewers.

Duck Skewers

BBQ Duck Skewers

The weather is fine, the BBQ is out and it’s time to pop something other than a sausage on the BBQ.  Skewers are always popular – I like to cut the meat into strips rather than chunks as it cooks more evenly. Duck is amazing on a BBQ – full of flavour and quick to […]

Coconut Chicken

Coconut Chicken and Pineapple

This is a lovely meal on the BBQ or under the grill. Cooking time is pretty short, about 15 minutes but you do need to marinate them for at least 3 hours, or even prepare them the night before.  Pineapple is a good fruit for these, as it’s solid enough to take the heat from […]
